Coach Andrew grew up playing youth hockey in Billings, Montana, from age four until 15. His junior career began in Billings with the Billings Bulls (Tier 2 Jr. A) before he left home to play Tier 3 for the Coeur d’Alene Colts of the NORPAC Hockey League in Spokane, Washington. After three years in Spokane, he returned to Billings to finish his junior career and moved straight into coaching as goalie coach for the Billings Bulls.
He coached on and off at the youth level until 2021, when he took on a Bantam A team in Billings. That led to coaching at the Montana Development Camps and Northern Plains Camps, and eventually to a leadership role as the Montana Amateur Hockey Association’s Goalie Development Coordinator. After relocating to Blaine, he became a lead instructor with MEGA at the Blaine campus while continuing as a Coach Developer with USA Hockey, instructing coaches at all levels.
